New Poll - Protagonist Age

This week's poll was suggested by Karonhioktha. There's no "no preference" choice, so make a pick. This is similar to a poll we did in 2012 which had you choose the preferred age of the protagonist relative to yourself, where the top pick (outside of no preference) chose the option "Approximately the same age as me".
